How To Callbacks in Trixbox FreePBX (screenshots!)

Let's continue from where we left in the "How To install Celliax in Trixbox 2.3.0.4" (here), and let's assume you have installed the FreePBX callback module (from "Tools->Module Admin" click on "Check for updates online", then click on the callback module).


How to install Celliax on Trixbox 2.3.0.4 (lots of screenshots!)

So, you want Celliax on the last Trixbox Beta, with Asterisk 1.4, FreePBX 2.3, and all the new bell and whistles.

OK, it's very easy.

Let's begin:

  1. Download, burn, and install the 2.3.0.4 ISO image from Trixbox.org Downloads (the file is called trixbox-2.3.2.64-i386-DVD.iso but is a 600MB CD image)
  2. When installation of Trixbox is completed, login into the Trixbox machine (at the keyboard, or via ssh, it's the same) as root
  3. Now is the moment to download and run one of the scripts to install Celliax on your Trixbox. That script comes in two flavors, the results are exactly the same for both flavors, you need only one of them.

celliax at Astricon 2007

September 27th, at 2.50pm, Giovanni Maruzzelli will make a presentation about: "chan_celliax: Cellphones as Asterisk GSM and SMS channels (with Skype support)".

Abstract:

chan_celliax is a GPL Asterisk channel driver (like chan_sip or chan_zap) that allows Asterisk to use standard cellphones as interfaces to the cellular network. It uses the cellphone datacable (often USB) to manage call and SMS related functions, and an audiocable to the soundcard for voice I/O. It plays well with IAX2, SIP and ZAP channels.


How to install Celliax in Trixbox 2.2.X (2.2.3 2.2.4 and following)

Lot of questions have been made in the forums about how to integrate Celliax into Trixbox (www.trixbox.org) so it can manage gsm cellphones.

So, let's roll.

What follows is the description of how I made it, starting from a freshly installed Trixbox 2.2.4.

It is assumed that the Trixbox installation has gone well, that the Trixbox machine has a soundcard supported by Linux, and that the Trixbox machine is connected to the Internet.

How to install Celliax on Ubuntu

by ibro

# smart install xorg-x11-devel alsa-devel asterisk

After compiling finish without errors ,copy Celliax module to Asterisk modules directory

# cp ./channels/chan_celliax.so /usr/lib/asterisk/modules

Celliax Developer CD Alpha 0.0.46

News:
  • Latest Asterisk 1.2.17
  • More AT commands configurability, we're almost in the final form!
  • Lots of bug fixes!!!
  • No Skype and alsamodems support, it will come back for sure!
  • No graphic configuration, it may come back
  • Configuration file fully customizable, hopefully can support any phone model
  • Debugging output very verbose and fine grained, will help adding features/phones
  • Code almost completely rewritten, more clear and documented. Will help other developers to jump in

This release is intended to give a solid foundation to chan_celliax, so only the core features are present.

Please, test it in deep, signal any bug or misbehavior.

When we'll be satisfied with the core features, support for Skype and alsamodems (and why not, for Bluetooth) will be added back ;-)


Celliax Developer's LiveCD 0.0.32


This CD contains all you need to run and modify Celliax software on Linux and Windows platforms. You can download it!

What's New in 0.0.32:

  • LiveCD:
    • Now you can save all your configuration between reboots (Celliax, Skype, Language, etc). You can save all of them on a regular file on your hard disk (or on a USB key) and have all of it automatically reloaded at next boot. No more need to "retrain" Skype at each reboot!
    • Linux support for all kind of datacables in the Celliax Devkits
    • New kernel 2.6.17.14 with ark3116 and working wireless ipw2200 modules
    • Headless Celliax, cellphones, Asterisk and Skype (without X)! Booting in console mode you find a script (/usr/local/asterisk/usr/sbin/celliax_server) that automatically launch Xvfb (the fake X11 server), Skype and Celliax. Also via ssh! Isn't that cute?
    • Graphic configuration for Celliax
    • Automatically download the latest sources with an svn script (/usr/local/asterisk/usr/sbin/svn_celliax, now's working)
    • Contains the Windows XP drivers for the Celliax DevKit datacables
